  • Book a ride yourself directly with the various Gondola companies

    Gondola ride was fine. However, they don’t tell you that if you have a group under 5, you will be matched up with strangers. The strangers that we were with ended up being nice. They boarded the boat first so we were not able to sit in the back of the boat. Therefore, we didn’t get any photos with the Gondolier. The price is the exact same as if I would’ve booked directly with a local company. I don’t recommend

  • Low and low quality

    I found it very unattractive, there were 5 gondolas in a row, they took a walk around a mediocre place and we came back. The unhelpful gondolieri rather seemed not to like what he did

  • Not quite what I expected

    Great value but felt incredibly quick. Did a small loop. Was in a boat with 3 others and my mistake didn't spot it wasnt a private ride. Having seen some of the other gondola, they had music commentary etc but our chap was very quiet. Beautiful place though!

  • Great value!

    We shared a gondola with 3 other people, but it did not feel crowded and we very much enjoyed the ride. It was a great deal for the price as long as you are not looking for a romantic private ride.

    It was very busy, a lot of gondolas go at the same time. The driver does not speak good English and just spoke to fellow gondoliers as he goes by.

  • Go just with your group!! Nice

    Just the experience but wish we were by ourselves.. as much as I paid for 30 minutes which is short. Wanted to be able to take pictures but couldn’t.

  • It says 30 min but those...

    It says 30 min but those 30 min included the time walking from meeting spot to gondola so in reality the gondola trip only lasted like 18 min, I would recommend a gondola private tour instead

  • Not a pleasant experience

    Wasn’t a pleasant experience at the counter collecting tickets. Not sure where to wait for the gondola, asked the counter politely where is the meeting point, she just yelled at the mic which was so blasting to my ears. Not recommended, try at your own risk.

    Excellent value for money. All wait at meeting point and head to gondola. Easy to find ticket office. We weren't so lucky with weather abit foggy but it didn't affect the experience going round the itinerary
